Technical Definition

An automated technique for designing optimal neural network architectures.

How it works

Neural Architecture Search (NAS) aims to automate the tedious and expertise-intensive process of creating efficient and effective neural network designs. Instead of human experts hand-crafting architectures, NAS algorithms explore a vast search space of possible network configurations to discover architectures that perform optimally on a given task. This can lead to state-of-the-art models but often requires significant computational resources.
